Samsung 9100 Pro 2TB

Read speed:
sequential read speed 14900 MB/s 14700 MB/s
random read speed 2700000 IOPS 1850000 IOPS

The Corsair MP700 Pro XT 2TB offers a sequential read speed of 14900 MB/s, which slightly outpaces the Samsung 9100 Pro 2TB's sequential read speed of 14700 MB/s. While the difference is relatively small, Corsair’s drive shows a slight edge in terms of sequential read performance.

In terms of random read speed, the Corsair MP700 Pro XT delivers a significantly higher 2700000 IOPS, compared to Samsung’s 1850000 IOPS. This indicates that the Corsair drive is notably faster when handling random read operations, with an advantage of nearly 850,000 IOPS.

Overall, both drives perform exceptionally well in their respective categories, but the Corsair MP700 Pro XT has a clear lead in both sequential and random read speeds based on the provided specifications.

Write speed:
sequential write speed 14500 MB/s 13400 MB/s
random write speed 3300000 IOPS 2600000 IOPS

The Corsair MP700 Pro XT 2TB has a sequential write speed of 14500 MB/s, which is faster than the Samsung 9100 Pro 2TB’s sequential write speed of 13400 MB/s. This gives the Corsair drive an edge in tasks that require high sequential write throughput.

For random write speeds, the Corsair MP700 Pro XT also leads with 3300000 IOPS, compared to the Samsung 9100 Pro 2TB’s 2600000 IOPS. This higher IOPS figure indicates that the Corsair drive is better suited for random write operations, handling more input/output operations per second.

Both drives perform excellently in write speed, but the Corsair MP700 Pro XT has a clear advantage over the Samsung 9100 Pro 2TB in both sequential and random write speeds based on the provided specifications.
